How it works
The Glutathiosome Dark Spot Toner Skin Booster is a 200ml toner, used straight after cleansing, morning and evening, while the face is still damp. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named fifth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Adenosine, Madecassoside and Acetyl Glucosamine, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the toner format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the toner Abib sells in Korea, Niacinamide and all.

Key actives
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. On this toner's own ingredient list it is named fifth.
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. It is named thirteenth on this toner's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Madecassosideactive
Madecassoside is the centella triterpene most associated with the look of redness, and the one brands lead with in cica products. It is water soluble and stable, so it appears in essences as readily as in creams. The panel names it sixteenth on this toner's list, beside Niacinamide.
Acetyl Glucosamineactive
Acetyl Glucosamine is the sugar unit hyaluronic acid is built from. It is used as a humectant and, at higher levels, for the look of uneven tone, often paired with niacinamide. The panel names it eighteenth on this toner's list, beside Niacinamide.
Asiaticosideactive
Asiaticoside is one of the four active triterpenes isolated from centella and the most studied of them. Korean formulas name it separately when they want to show which fraction of the plant they standardised. It is named nineteenth on this toner's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Where does this toner go in my routine?
Straight after cleansing, morning and evening, while the face is still damp. Anything thinner than a toner goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Niacinamide and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market toner or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Niacinamide and all. We match this toner to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?
Adenosine, Madecassoside and Acetyl Glucosamine. The order they are printed in on this toner's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Asiaticoside, Allantoin and Capryloyl Salicylic Acid.

How to use
- Apply it within a minute of cleansing, while the face is still wet, so it spreads without dragging.
- Pour a small amount into damp palms and press it over the face and down the neck in two passes.
- Move on to serum and cream while the surface is still tacky, since that is when the next layer sits best.
- Do not sweep it off with a dry cotton pad, because most of the liquid ends up on the cotton rather than on the skin.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this toner on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Niacinamide on the list.
- Lactic Acid and Salicylic Acid on this list makes this toner an exfoliating step, so do not stack it with another one on the same night.
